Prepare.

On March 7, David Wilkerson wrote what he called an urgent message. To summarize, he writes, “AN EARTH-SHATTERING CALAMITY IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. IT IS GOING TO BE SO FRIGHTENING, WE ARE ALL GOING TO TREMBLE – EVEN THE GODLIEST AMONG US.”

About two years ago, my wife and I began a journey of information that began with the realization that slavery is still going on in the world today. It moved to Naomi Klein’s book “The Shock Doctrine”, which reveals the depths of evil the US and British governments have gone in order to being about our current state of globalization. From there, we found ourselves delving into a labyrinth of information and disinformation that has truly rocked our understanding of the world.

People we were listening to saw this economic crisis coming last May, and yet I still hear the MSM saying how no one saw it coming. Poppy cock. It’s been forecast for about a decade by people with sense who saw that the greed and deception would have to lead to collapse. We just never heard about it, because all the media is owned by four major corporations.

I gave a presentation at a school here to their Social Justice club around April 08. The question always is, when you start learning how the earth is really being run, how does one respond? My answer was then and is now to keep talking about it, keep reading, keep writing. But finally, we need to all disconnect ourselves from the machine and learn to look after ourselves. I mean, wow, in one single generation, we’ve basically forgotten how, as a society, to grow our own food! That by itself is simply incredible. Why? Because we’ve allowed others to do it for us. It’s easier. It’s simpler. It’s cheaper. And it’s costlier. It’s costing us our freedom, our health, and in the end our very lives.

We bought chickens.

We cut off our TV subscription, and were able to cut a $100/month communication bill to $50.

So as my wife and I were living day to day, we were keeping our spiritual ears wide open. And we knew, that soon, we didn’t know when, something was going to be coming down the pipe. Something big, something bad, something earth changing. I sat down last summer with a local politician to get their viewpoint on local food production. She was telling me then how over the last year she had met with scores of people who all felt that something was changing, something in the air. Already we were preparing, slowly.

As Christmas approached, and we turned our hearts toward the New Year, I knew things were going to get bad. I made serious financial decisions that I carried through with in January. And the time came for us to get serious about the thought that had been growing in our heart.

Prepare. It’s time to prepare. The word for us has been that if we are not prepared, in our lives, in our souls, in our heart and spirit, then we are going to be laid waste by what is going to happen. We don’t know what, but we have set our face and feet like a flint towards our soon and coming King.

My Favourite Things…

Quiet time, that on my own walking somewhere, sitting under the clouds and trees, or just quiet time at home (you know, the one where the kids go to their bedrooms and the house becomes your again), morning lattes, My wife's hugs, my eldest's ideas, my middle one's playfulness, my youngest's eyes, the competition and predictability and unpredictability of sport, the life illustrations found in chess, the fingerprint of God in nature, the alphabetical symbols and all their permutations of combinations and underlying meaning, playing board games with friends, the-lights-are-on look in the eyes of my students, the search for truth, the voice of Yahweh in my heart, learning His ways are perfect,
